    I Put In An Unlocked Sierra Mc8781 In My Cf-19 With The Dip Switches Set On 2 And 3. Then I Installed The At&t Communication Manager, When I Connect To The At&t Manager My Wifi Works But The Mobile Will Not Connect Keeps Showing Searching For Network. I've Also Tired Sierra Aircard Watcher And It Will Not Connect , Keeps Searching.
    I Have My At&t Sims Card In The Slot In The Cf-19. I Can Put The Sims Card Back In My Acer Or Put The Sims Card In Aircard 875u And It Works Fine. I Want To Use My At&t Sims Card In The Panasonic Toughbook Cf-19. I've Called At&t And The Person I Talk With Was Unable To To Get My Sims Card To Work In The Cf-19.

    Maybe a dumb question but did you connect the antenna lead.

    Yes! On The Mc8781 Card Main > Black Wire And Aux > Brown Wire. It's Picking Up Good But Will Not Connect To Network.

    Does the WWAN show enabled in the BIOS?

    Are there any unknown devices in Device Manager?

    Yes! Wwan Shows Enable In Bios. I Can Put My Att Sims Card In The Wireless Aircard 875u Then Plug Into A Usb Port On The Cf-19 And It Works Good.
